Who pays when corporations go bankrupt. I would like to see realistic awards and fines be levied but at the end of the day, we all pay directly or indirectly.

your rights don't extend to a private company requiring vaccines as a condition of employment.

thats why we need laws in place to prevent this.


this lady rightfully won because of laws on religious discrimination. without those laws, she would have been out of luck.

What specific "realistic award" number do you put on the drug manufacturers for damages?

Catholic woman fired for refusing COVID vaccine wins over $12M in Michigan court | Fox News

Quote:

---

A Catholic woman who was fired for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine was awarded close to $13 million in damages after suing her former employer, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan.

Lisa Domski, who worked at the insurance company for 38 years as an IT specialist, was awarded the massive payout after a federal jury in Detroit ruled in favor of her religious discrimination case. She argued that the company denied her request for an exemption from its 2021 COVID vaccine policy despite her insistence that it conflicted with her Catholic faith.

Domski's lawyer Jon Marko told Fox News Digital that she had worked remotely during the pandemic and was on a hybrid arrangement prior to the COVID outbreak. Her remote work arrangement should have excluded her from the vaccine policy as she posed no risk to others, he said.

"This was a woman who was working from home in her basement office who wasn't a threat to anybody and was completely fulfilling all of her job obligations for 38 years," Marko told Fox News Digital.

Marko said he is representing 170 others in separate wrongful termination cases who are taking similar action against Blue Cross Blue Shield Michigan over the 2021 vaccine mandate. The trials are set to begin in the new year.

If I were an attorney, this would be my primary focus because jurors were forced to jab to keep their jobs against their will. I hope everyone wins their suits and corporations are crushed, even to the point of bankruptcy. That was the most un-American bull**** that I thought I'd never see in my life.

I did not take the vax, but if I'm ever one of these jurors, the plaintiff has already won and the company should know up front that the check they'll have to write will have 2 commas in it.

---

This is all good but have to get Big P to pay. They falsified the data and pushed this miracle jab onto the world (the part that could pay).

Glad she won, but I must have missed that part in Mass where getting the vaccine was against Church doctrine.

There should be civil remedies for anyone with a Swiss flag that posted pro-vax lies.

I refused, claimed a made-up religion, and was granted an exception.

Now wish I would've let them fire me so I could be this lady. Damn.

My Austin company's CEO was very friendly with Adler (Mayor). The day after Biden and the mayor suggested companies "need to do more", our company made the vax mandatory if you were in the office. F*** 'em all, hope they get sued out of existence.

Salute the vaccines!

A few Big Wins like this and the major companies will start offering settlements to their employees that fought this tooth and nail. Low to mid 6 figures to lots of people ? ? ? Early retirement for them all. Could be fun.

Good to see. Never forget what the vax shills did.

Many of them still post here. And lucky for them, texags purged F16 history.

the great purge came before the vaccine dropped.

there is still a covid forum. bizarrely.

I'm conflicted.

On one hand, screw the companies that required vax proof.

On the other hand, you should be able to be fired for whatever reason the company decides. No one owes you a job.

And the settlement amount is silly. Pay this woman for lost wages, likely only a few years before she was going to retire anyway, and her legal fees and move on.

I respectfully disagree. These corporations should be punished so they will think twice before they threaten their employees' livelihood and families if they refuse to be a guinea pig. I hope they lose millions if not billions for forcing a worthless vax into people against their will. ****'em!

Getting fired for not taking an experimental shot thats is NOT 100% safe, is not a valid reason.

I pretty much hate all corporations now, thanks to this embarrassing, tyrannical and oppressive episode in American History.

Proud that I forged a vaccine card to keep my job instead of bending the knee.

I think they learned from the purge. It's best to keep that suppository of information in tact.

You're no wrong. The "Suck it, Big Pharma!" isn't going to hurt them in the long run. I mean, does it ever?

They'll pass this on to whoever they can. The house never loses, but, at least that lady gets justice.

Concepts like treble damages exist for this reason.

I wish the punishments for corporations could be more direct. Ideally anyone involved in these decisions (c-suite and boards) would become a pariah: unable to find a corporate leadership position within any publicly traded company. Perhaps the closest we could get is to charge them all with HIPPA violations proportional to the number of employees they directed to report on their jab status.

Understood, but my confliction has nothing to do with the reason for the firing. I don't care what it was, her boss could have not liked her perfume that day. I suppose naming the reason changes things, but this still stinks of her having a right to her job. And the settlement amount sucks unless her legal bills were $11MM.

We agree on the need for tort reform, but that's never going to happen because lawyers make up almost 80% of lawmakers and they'll never pass a law that hurts their profession. They also have powerful lobbyists. Imo, capping damages would lower health insurance costs, but what do I know. That said, since we don't have tort reform, and these corporations forced their loyal employees to inject a bs vax that might cause significant health issues, then I hope they get crushed by punitive damages. That should've never happened in a free America, so ****'em, burn to the ground and rebuild with new management that aren't heavy hand of government.

Fair enough.

Unpossible. I read on this website that the shot was 100% safe, effective, and free.

Even though I personally know someone who had a stroke from the clot shot.

I personally knew 5 that died due to stroke/heart attack. They all never had heart issues before, but I was mocked and a conspiracy theorist. I went to their funerals, but was dismissed as anecdotal.

That's why I want to punish these companies that forced this **** into their powerless employees. Like I've previously stated, if I'm ever a juror in a trial for anything vax related, then the corporation has already lost and I'm very persuasive, so the plaintiff will win and get paid.

The vax is was developed with stem cells, some of which were from murdered babies. There was a very real moral dilemma with Catholics and the vax. But I doubt you actually care

ETA: Dilemma is the wrong word. There is no ambiguity. The Church has been very clear on stem cell research as well as murdered babies

Does the 38 years of employment have any bearing on the value of the award?

Would it be the same if she had only been employed 2-3 years?

AFAIK you're correct about the law, but it's insane that the government have thousands of pages of ruthlessly enforced statues and regulatory specifications for everything businesses MUST spend money on to provide "reasonable accommodations" for all kinds of medical/mental health conditions, including reassigning someone to a different position that fits their medical condition. Yet a company the size of a state BCBS couldn't find any way to accommodate this woman's medical condition, they insisted it was "Your body, our choice".

I agree it's not a valid reason to fire someone, but this is the decision of a business, not the government. Are we conservatives or are we social-progressives?

I think receiving an order for a cake with a Star Of David or two grooms or a confederate flag on it isn't a valid reason to not take the money and decorate the cake, but I 100% believe businesses have the right to make that choice. They don't owe every customer the cake decorations they want, just like BCBS doesn't owe anyone the job conditions they want.
